Being a teacher, you offer yourself up like a sacrificial lamb for whatever fund-raising needs to be done for whatever in-school club/society/social committee/dance or music group that requires it. I was a ready volunteer for humiliating myself for a good cause. I’ve had my legs waxed, sang […]

One of the brakes on our member’s wheelchair snapped, making daily use more challenging and creating an unreliable chair from which to do transfers.
On contacting the local provider […]

Spinal Injuries Scotland (Registered Charity: SC015405) is the national voluntary organisation concerned with new and long-term spinal cord injured people, their relatives and friends, along with those involved in the management, care and rehabilitation of the injury.
SIS provides support through the office based Information Service and operates a self-referral information line. We also provide a legal and welfare rights advisory service. Our representatives, who are able to discuss all aspects of living with a spinal cord injury, undertake regular visits to the Queen Elizabeth National Spinal Injuries Unit.
In addition we liaise with other similar voluntary and professional organisations so that the issues surrounding spinal cord injury are recognised and understood.
